OCTOBER 8, 2010
Krystal Ball, her real name, is a Democratic candidate for Congress from Virginia. She is upset because some racy, she says raunchy, photos of her were posted on the internet by a blogger. The photos were taken at a costume party six years ago, says the 29 year old. She is not saying they are not her or that they are retouched, she is just upset they were put on the internet. One photo shows her holding a chain attached to a dog collar around a man’s neck. She says this is her ex-husband. Boy they must have been a fun couple. This also says something about her ability to make a commitment. In the photo, the man is wearing a sex toy on his nose. In two of the photos she has the sex toy in her mouth. I am sure Mr. and Mrs. Ball are proud. Remember, these are just the photos that have been released or leaked. She looks mighty comfortable in front of the camera in theses suggestive shots. Check out the photos and make up your own mind. Go to address below and search for Krystal Ball
At least it is clear where she stands on family values. The fundamentalist votesare apparently unimportant to her.
So now, according to a Senate investigation, a U. S. private contractor we hired to provide security in Afghanistan, paid warlords off for security personnel. They were on the payroll as Mr. White and Mr. Pink, names used in a Quentin Tarantino film “Reservoir Dogs”. The company was hired to provide security at Shindand Airbase. At the suggestion of U. S. Military personnel, the company paid local warlords to provide security people. This was all paid for by U. S. taxpayers.
The obvious question to me is; Why does our military have to hire security personnel? Isn’t that what our military does. How can we protect a country when we have to hire security to protect our Armed Forces? That is what happens when defense contractors have too big a say so in our military policy.
Locally, we are represented by Bill Foster. He had tough shoes to fill. He followed Dennis Hastert, one of the most powerful men in Congress. He was Speaker of the House. Bill Foster is running for reelection against Randy Hultgren.
Bill Foster has been in Congress several years now. He never boasts about a bill or law he introduced in Congress and got passed. He has a good reason not to. It has never happened. Foster votes along party lines when it is obvious that is how the vote is going. He votes against party lines when he knows his vote is meaningless. ‘Do nothing’ Bill (wake me when it’s over) Foster is just the type of rascal we must vote out of office. He got his shot. It did not work. Not everyone is cut out to be a Congressman. Bill Foster fits that profile.
He is running advertisements against his opponent, Randy Hultgren, attacking him for his employer taking bailout money. Bill Foster voted to hand out this money and now he wants you t vote for him because his opponent’s employer legally took the money. If Bill Foster did not want a business to take the money, he should not have voted to make it available to them. Randy Hultgren did not take the money, no matter how many times Bill Foster lies about it, his employer took the money Congress gave them.
Don’t vote for a law and then criticize someone for following the law. I will bet Mr. Foster uses every law available to him at tax time to lower his tax obligation.
Vote for Randy Hultgren. It is time to throw the incumbents back into the real world the voters live in.
